Shabdiz , My Fellow Traveller

[Rezgar]

In the north of Kermanshah and beside Taq E Bostan Mountain there is a Stone Statue of a horse that was about 1500 years ago, and the horse of Iran's King Khosroparviz.
The King of Iran loved it so much, and they say that the king and his horse talked together.
The name of this horse has been Shabdiz, and has been one of the most powerful warriors and smart horses of his time, and has loved his owner.

Khosrow(King of Iran) loved the horse so much that he gave him his food, and he swore he would be killed immediately if anyone told him about his death.
One day, the man and his guard rushed to Barbad, The Harp's musician, and the intimate friend of the Shah and Barbad was pleased with him, and when he received the king's receipt, he grabbed a harp and spoke while singing: "The Shabdiz( Horse of The King) no longer moves and no longer sleeps" .
The King shouted, "Shabdiz died?"
Barbad replied: "My King, you said this", Khosrow said: "Well Done!! , you who saved both yourself and others from death."
After the death of Shabdiz, Khosrow buried the horse with great ceremonies and ordered to make a stone statue of him, and he cried whenever he was contemplating the statue.

The name of my Car and my Fellow traveler is Shabdiz, and during my many years of traveling has always been with me, he has never left me alone and we travel always together.

Hey @Rezgar,

I really enjoyed reading your post and I think that it's pretty cool that you have named your car to a famous horse!

Fun fact: I also gave names to my bike and my motorcycle. 🙂

Cheers

My dear friend @Rezgar ,

You do ongoing such an amazing presentation of Iran and the cultural heritage, that from week to week I feel growing the need to visit your country once. 

My brother did this some years ago and still tells about the enormous cultural diamonds you have in Iran.

I instantly hope to be able to visit Iran 🇮🇷 once in my lifetime! Thank you so much!
